FEAT have been successful with a bid for a pilot project called Heart, Mind & Soul. The focus is on finalising the Master-Plan for Silverburn Park’s ongoing regeneration and maintenance, with a refreshed Conservation Management Plan and Urban Woodland Management Plan. We will deliver activities which help implement these Plans, supported by individual and group volunteers, peer supporters, local community members and partnership organisations. Volunteer progression and development into employment, within Silverburn Park and more widely. Developing a more structured programme of skills-building and training to further enable and empower volunteers, including developing a portfolio of qualifications. Formal evaluation and recommendations for future roll-out to benefit FEAT clients and the community.
We are looking for two enthusiastic Peer Support Workers to engage with and support FEAT clients experiencing mental health challenges; develop their understanding of recovery, using your own experience and insight to support, empower and instil hope. You will support clients through their recovery journey and help them to identify and progress towards their goals. Able to share personal experiences, you will work as part of a team to support clients on an individual and group basis. You will have a good awareness of community resources and be able to signpost and network to make referrals. You will help clients overcome barriers to progression, offering support and guidance, using the CHIME model.
Due to the short timescale the pilot will run – December or January to June 2022, applicants should already possess the skills and experience required.

COALFIELDS WORX UPDATE
Success for first 3 recruits
The Coalfields Worx Programme, which supports young people living in former mining communities still affected by the social and economic impact of pit closures into employment, has helped three of its trainees secure jobs.
The initiative is a partnership between the Coalfields Regeneration Trust (CRT) and Fife Employment Access Trust. It offers paid training, with participants undertaking a range of environmental maintenance jobs, coupled with skills and qualification development and support to move into employment, education or training.
CRT is the primary funder, with Community Job Scotland and Fife Council also making a contribution.
The young people who have recently moved from the Coalfields Worx programme into jobs are: Cameron Skelton (26) of High Valleyfield, who is now working in environmental services with Fife Council; Jake McKenzie (21) of Kincardine, who has started a green keeping apprenticeship with Tulliallan Golf Club; and Mitchell Easton (19) of Kincardine who is in railway construction with Bam Rail.
Ross Sinclair, Coalfield Worx project leader, said: “I enjoy working with all the trainees who take part in the programme. It’s great to see them gain new skills and grow in confidence. I’m really pleased for the young people who have started their new jobs, and I’m sure they will do well.”
Nicky Wilson, chair of CRT in Scotland, said: “It’s great seeing young people finding employment in the local area after taking part in the Coalfields Worx Programme back. We wish them all the best in their careers. And we hope many more trainees will take part in this excellent initiative.”

THESE FEAT ARE MADE FOR WALKING!
New office for FEAT
We will move out of our premises in Glenrothes this week after twenty years in the town, relocating into Silverburn Park near Leven with our services now being based outdoors and on online. We took on the lease for the 27-acre public park in 2019.
“It made sense to be closer to Silverburn as it has proved more and more useful to be able to get clients into nature, which is so helpful for everyone’s mental health. Some of our courses, such as ‘Employ Your Mind’, are already being run completely outdoors. We also have a number of clients volunteering at the park and some have even ended up with a job there,” said Duncan Mitchell CEO of FEAT. “In addition our services have moved online over the past year due to the pandemic and so it was a no brainer. We can now save money and cut our carbon footprint too.”
We are also fundraising at present for a multi-million pound visitor centre and community hub within the park, which will include offices for FEAT plus a café and restaurant, a shop, backpackers’ hostel with en-suite rooms, arts and craft studios, public toilets with fully accessible Changing Space facilities, as well as spaces for meetings, events and learning. The premises, which it is hoped will open in 2025, when it is planned the Levenmouth Railway will be operational, will take what the charity do to new level. People will be able learn new skills, train in different roles and gain employment.
On Monday (18 Jan 2021) the park will host a 300 plus lantern community art installation, focussing on local the heritage industries of linen and paper making by using images of flax flowers and paper. The installation is a pilot project to see how such heritage crafts could be received when carried out in the new building. It will be held as part of Blue Monday – January 18th - supposedly the most depressing day of the year and focusses on helping support people with their mental health in these challenging times. We need to raise further funds to complete the build and have so far raised more than £22,000 via a community crowdfunding campaign. However, we need to raise £2.5 million, so help is still needed. To support the Crowdfunder log onto: www.greenspacescotland.org.uk/silverburn-flax-mill or text FLAX to 70085 to donate £5. Texts cost £5 plus one standard rate message or choose your own amount e.g. FLAX10 to 70085. This can be anything from £1 to £20.
NEED INSPIRATIONAL IDEAS FOR CHRISTMAS PRESENTS?
How about buying a brick!!
We are proud to announce the launch of the Silverburn Flax Mill ‘Buy A Brick’ Campaign. We hope to raise £1,500 by Christmas towards the re-pointing and renovation of the Flax Mill’s 30,000 iconic red bricks. “Buying” a virtual brick will help us to achieve the multi-million pound fundraising target which will enable the transformation of Silverburn Park’s Flax Mill.
The campaign will allow people to buy into the future of Silverburn Park by donating £15 per brick, a unique gift for a loved-one this Christmas.
Each brick will be carefully repointed and repaired, bringing the currently derelict B-listed former Flax Mill building back to life, the jewel in the crown of Silverburn Park. A park that was gifted by the Russell Family to the people of Fife, and the people of Levenmouth in particular, as a place of quiet reflection.
A special gift for people who love Silverburn Park
The brick certificate, emailed to you or your loved-one, will make an ideal gift for people who love the park and want to see it revived. An ideal gift for coastal path walkers, cyclists, runners, dog walkers, Scottish heritage enthusiasts, families who love the park, people who want to see Levenmouth thrive. If you can’t visit your loved-ones this Christmas then send them something meaningful and look forward to meeting in the park.
Each brick renovation costs £15 and the money raised will go towards the multi-million-pound Silverburn Flax Mill Visitor Centre and Community Hub, set to open in 2025, in time for the opening of the Levenmouth Rail Link.
To commemorate your gift:
- A personalised Brick Renovation Certificate
- Information about the Flax Mill project. If you are a family, business or organisation and would like to contribute ten or more bricks, you will have your business name credited on our website.

FEAT SUCCESSFUL WITH FUNDING FOR TRANSFORMATIONAL PROJECT AT SILVERBURN PARK
Press Release 28 June 2019
Fife Employment Access Trust (FEAT) are celebrating a significant award from the National Lottery Heritage Fund to transform the future of Silverburn Park in Leven.
FEAT are a Fife-wide award-winning mental health and employment specialist charity, also celebrating their 25th anniversary this year and are celebrating an award of £374,600 initially by the Fund to enter the formal development phase of the project which ultimately aims to renovate the B-listed former flax mill in the Park into a hub of commercial and community activities ranging from a hostel, café and community space, serving local people and visitors from the Fife Coastal Path.
Duncan Mitchell, General Manager at FEAT, says, “It’s been a long road to get to this point and I have to thank Fife Council and particularly current and previous members of the Levenmouth Area Committee who gave us the opportunity to lease the Park and hopefully spark new life into the site with wider benefits for the local community.”
It was back in 2012 that Fife Council marketed Silverburn as a development opportunity as a way of securing its regeneration, while at the same time safeguarding public access and the natural and historical value, with FEAT being named as the preferred partner.
Since then a wealth of activity has taken place to begin the regeneration of the Park and undertake the feasibility studies, community consultations and detailed designs – as well as fully cost the renovations work.
Duncan adds, “The funding from National Lottery Heritage Fund will now enable us to focus on securing the remainder of the funding needed to complete the construction phase of the project and finalise the designs for the renovation of the mill, as well as maintaining our vision to develop the Park as a place of quiet enjoyment, conserving the cultural values of the landscape and buildings, supporting the health & wellbeing of the community and enhancing the habitat and biodiversity of the environment. The funding will also support FEAT to ensure that meaningful training, volunteering, work experience and employment opportunities are available to their core client group and the surrounding community.
Once we can establish the final project, it will also be an income-generator for the charity and therefore reduce our reliance on grant funding to sustain our core work.”
FEAT will continue to work in partnership with Fife Council throughout this next phase of the programme, as well as Fife Historic Buildings Trust who have extensive experience – and success – of supporting successful implementation of similar projects across the Kingdom.
Further details of FEAT’s vision and aims for the Park are available at www.silverburnpark.co.uk and regular updates on the current daily activities at the Park are on their facebook page. Those developments have included managing volunteer and training programmes, opening a small café last year with plans to open a campsite this year as a pre-cursor to the flax mill re-development.
FEAT have also delivered a wide variety of community events and this Saturday (29th June) the Friends of Silverburn group are hosting a free family fun day from 12-3 pm.
Brian Robertson, Chair of the Silverburn project Board, adds, “It’s been a long haul to get to this point of the project and we have a vast amount of work to do now to ensure we can raise the remainder of the funding required to transform the Park – however, the support from the National Lottery Heritage Fund is a huge advantage to us when approaching others – they have shown faith in our plans, and our ability to deliver these plans, and everyone connected with FEAT is on cloud 9.”
Cllr Ken Caldwell convener of Levenmouth Area Committee welcomed the news saying: "This is great news for Levenmouth that FEAT has secured funding from the National Lottery Heritage fund. We're in full support of FEAT and are working closely with them on redevelopment plans for Silverburn Park. We want Silverburn to be an asset for the community; somewhere everyone can enjoy."
Christine May, Chair of Fife Historic Buildings Trust said, "All at FHBT are so proud to have helped the Silverburn team to achieve this wonderful financial support, the result of months of hard work and co-operation. We are looking forward to getting stuck in with all the partners involved and to making the dream a reality."

FEAT GET RUNNER-UP SLOT IN FIFE BUSINESS AWARDS
Whilst we picked up the top prize at the Centre for Social Justice Awards at the beginning of March, we couldn't make it 2 out of 2 unfortunately as we came runner-up in the Fife Business Awards 2019. The ceremony took place on 29 March and our category (Excellence in Creativity and Innovation) was won by John Young Signs.
Alan Mitchell, CEO of Fife Chamber of Commerce and one of the judges this year, says, "I want to congratulate FEAT on being a finalist at the 2019 Fife Business Awards. I know that nothing I can say will change any disappointment you may be feeling because you didn’t win but you should not lose sight of the fact that FEAT is doing amazing things that are worthy of celebration.
You had the courage to apply when most didn’t and you demonstrated excellence to be shortlisted. You should be very proud. I hope that your application will inspire many others to come forward in the future, and I hope that it will not deter you from applying with the same passion and determination in 2020.
I have no doubt that you will continue to enjoy great success and everyone at Fife Chamber wishes you nothing but the very best. "

FEAT LAND TOP PRIZE IN "VOLUNTARY SECTOR OSCARS"
London audience applaud FEAT's work
Twenty-five years after our foundation, Fife Employment Access Trust (FEAT) have won a Centre for Social Justice (CSJ) Award for its work supporting those with mental health problems to find employment.
The prize, presented on Tuesday evening (5th March) at a prestigious venue in Central London, includes a £10,000 grant and promotion of the organisation’s vital work before an audience of influential politicians, journalists and philanthropists. The Awards are also known as the Oscars for the Voluntary Sector.
According to the Scottish Government, around one in three people are estimated to be affected by mental illness in any one year. Many of these struggle to find or maintain stable employment.
Duncan Mitchell, General Manager of FEAT, said: "Day in, day out we get to work with people experiencing severe disadvantages in life due to their mental health and help them to unlock their ability and talent to overcome their daily challenges in life. It is an honour to help them on their journeys.
“Winning this award is an enormous boost to everyone associated with FEAT, particularly to the staff and volunteers who constantly go far beyond the call of duty to achieve life-changing outcomes for the people who inspire us every day.
“This year we are celebrating our twenty-fifth anniversary and what a way to mark it. We hope this award will lead on to even bigger and better things for us and the amazing people we serve.”
Andy Cook, Chief Executive of the Centre for Social Justice think tank, said “FEAT innovates new techniques and approaches to solving some of the most pressing issues in the field of mental health. Among these, the inability to find and maintain regular work is paramount.“The dignity of work and the confidence it instils are crucial to solving mental health problems.“The CSJ recognises FEAT’s innovation, efficiency and compassion in helping people find work and rebuild their lives. We wish them another twenty-five years of stellar achievement.”
